This time Chel actually rested herself well enough to be deemed "not sick" by a multitude of green knights. It was infuriating to sit in a cot while her stomach rolled and tossed inside her, but it was worth it when she could stand up and stretched herself out without needing to excrete satan out of her a**.
Her house gave her a foul, distrusting look as she approached and in return she gave him a What? kind of expression with a non-verbal shrug. It took a bit of coaxing but she eventually got him to come around.
She took less food this time. Considering both times before she'd basically thrown it all up, it seemed smarter to prepare lightly. She really hoped it wouldn't come down to anything so drastic. She just wanted her sacred weapon. Was that so much to ask?
Apparently it was, because as she set out a light rain took over the sky. It didn't bode well. QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 28 YOUR HP: 30/30

The rain continued at a foggy drizzle all along the cliffside. Chel hesitated, made her horse go slow (he was pissed at her doubting his abilities, such was the way of a pesky horse) and took her time.
She liked fog, certainly, but this sort of fog felt ominous. It felt like shadows or riders or anything curling and billowing and sagging in the distance. Waiting for her. Watching.
It was times like this, when she was left alone to her own devices, that she tried to recall from her memories. She couldn't remember anything before the knighthood. Maybe that was a sign that she was meant to be here. Maybe this was her life.
But that didn't seem to be right. Even as she slowly led her horse down the cliffside, Chel couldn't fight the itch that said something was missing.
All the trepadation turned out to be for nothing though, as a crack of lightning had her pulling on the reigns too tightly. Her horse stuttered and one of her saddlebags broke free from the rope it was tied down by. The bag went careening over the side and Chel had to sadly watch it fly down into the misty abyss without being able to do a single thing. QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 28 YOUR HP: 30/30

Down, down, down tumbled her bag of sweetcakes and meats. It was disappointing, considering those were meant to be her reward at the end.
Now she supposed her only reward was going to be a shower (thank you sky) and getting home in the first place. She still had more than enough food to make the journey, but it was a pain in the a** to lose her treats.QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 24 YOUR HP: 30/30

The forest welcomed her about as much as any forest could when it was pouring water. The trees provided some cover from the deluge, but it didn't help that every pore of her body was already filled with water. Chel was cowering beside her horse, trying to escape the noise of the thunder.
She'd camp out until the storm past. Chel found herself a sturdy thicket of wood that sheltered her from the rain, but nothing could be done about the sound. She shoved cloth around her head, swaddled it to drown out the noise like the rain was doing to her, but even with that the noise still pervaded.
Eventually Chel fell asleep for a short time. When she woke up there was a small basket of food near her head, mysteriously left there.
While her paranoia was signaling that it was a trap, life as a vagabond had taught her to never just leave gifts unattended. She fed some of the vegetables to her horse first (the life of one beast was hardly worth her own strife). Seeing as the food did nothing to him, she assumed it good and fastened it down to her saddlebags. With that, she was off.QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 34 YOUR HP: 30/30

Chel had to wonder why the area surrounding Camelot was filled with so many caves.
This one wasn't so much a cave as it was a giant hole in the ground. Chel had to unfasten all of her saddlebags and use the rope to lower herself down into the crevice.
Unfortunately, there were spiked arrows that lay at the bottom. She couldn't slow her descent and she couldn't avoid them, so she ended up just taking them in her legs.
Ow.QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 34 YOUR HP: 10/30

At the very least, when she reached the bottom the tabard was sitting right there. Other than the arrows there hadn't been much protecting it.
"Alright man, let's skip town."
